Lamp
colour ( Kelvins )

The colour of a lamp is defined as a measurement called kelvins. A standard GLS light bulb in your house would be 2,700 kelvins
which is in the warm colour spectrum and a lamp with 6,000 kelvins would be at the very cold white spectrum. Getting
the right colour temperature of a lamp does matter as the warm colour wavelength helps to soften skin tones and gives
a warm soft relaxed feel and at the other end of the scale a 4,000 to 6,000 kelvin lamp colour would be used in
offices or at fast food restaurants to make you feel less comfortable and relaxed and feel more alert. There’s nothing
that can sour your opinion of a compact fluorescent or LED lamp like buying a 4000K or 5000K bulb when you meant
to buy a 2700K bulb, or vice-versa. When you buy a new, energy efficient bulb, keep your application and colour scheme
in mind and make sure to buy the bulb with a colour temperature to match.
